You know, I REALLY liked this game as a kid, but I never got why the roadrunner ends up president. I mean, the coyote being customer of the year makes perfect sense and is hilarious, but the roadrunner doesn't really seem to have anything to do with acme.
I remember playing this game when I was VERY little. It's funny cause I haven't thought of this game probably since I was a kid. And seeing some of the old levels (the colors of certain things, the way the levels were built, even some of the sounds things made) were just so easy to remember. Thanks for uploading this. I'd love to play this game again.
I used to play this game when I was a kid. I always beat the game with Road Runner more than three times and I always tried with Wile E. - He is a lot harder than Road Runner.
This game tried to follow the true spirit of the Road Runner cartoons, but it's over WAY too quickly. The game could have been better in that sense...
The levels in this game always had you exploring a lot of and looking for extra little secrets and places. That may be why the timer was always such a bitch.
And on a side note: I just noticed that there is only one boss in this game.
Yeah, it's sad playing a childhood game and realizing it takes no time at all to beat. It's funny, cuz when the 32-bit and 64-bit generation was starting, people were complaining the games were too short. They only seemed short cuz of save points -- back in the day, if you died (which you probably would since most of us weren't good as kids), you returned from the beginning the next day and played again. If I find this game cheap, though, I'd probably buy it just to play it again.
I feel almost the same way,except I actually feel like Sonic is actually also like Bugs Bunny too in a way. I mean people say that Nintendo is like the Disney of gaming,with Mario being like the Mouse himself. Sega is somewhat the Warner Bros of gaming with Sonic and friends being the Looney Tunes.
AIG? What's that? Anyway,I meant back in the 90's Sega WAS like WB,competition-wise. And even if Sega's going downhill,I'll always think of Sonic as the Bugs Bunny of gaming.
The ending to Road Runner's story is true to the Looney Tunes' reputation for comedy,Road Runner becoming the Acme president while the Coyote throws himself out the window has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in any Looney Tune game.
Oh man, I had this game SkyL. I thought Grand Finale was the first boss or something, but I guess as a kid I DID beat the game...then I got rid of it :P
im pretty sure it can be improved too :( i missed that you can jump at the end and hit 3 of the turbo powerups, not to mention the 6-8 mistakes i made otherwise
They completely ripped off of Sonic the Hedgehog during that part! Theyve turned Road Runners gameplay into a Sonic clone! Sweet! I am so gonna play this game now!
@e521soediv: Speed Demos Archieve. It's a website that allows users to upload speedruns. HOWEVER, they DO NOT accept runs done on emulators, as it is considered "cheating". The reason why is the site thinks that when an emulator is used, savestates are involved. The only way this video could be put on SDA, is if Skylights1 had an actual SEGA Genesis, with a capturing device to show only the screen. (Gamebridge, for example)
